Configuration

Copy the configuration file from misc/examples/connectors.ini to /etc/shadowd/connectors.ini and edit it.
The file is annotated and should be self-explanatory, but if you are stuck you can find more information in the documentation.
Make sure that it is readable by the web server user, otherwise your site will not work anymore.

If you plan to protect multiple applications you can use the environment variable SHADOWD_CONNECTOR_CONFIG to specify different configuration files for every target.

Ignore sensitive input!

You should use the ignore function of the connector to disregard very sensitive input, e.g., passwords.

What’s next?

You have successfully installed Shadow Daemon, now you can start with the configuration.
